Finally tried xmms. It looks like a bug in pulseaudio. pulseaudio is
throwing away data buffer after playing only fraction of it.
Interestingly, this can be avoided by having pavucontrol or other play
stream running. Can you please verify that the problem goes away if
you have pavucontrol running? There's also another problem with xmms.
The current version of ossp blocks mixer commands till the r/w
commands are complete and this makes xmms's UI stutter a bit. I
modified osspd to lazy execute mixer commands while responding
immediately to the requester. I'm testing it now and with pavucontrol
open, xmms works quite nicely.
Thanks.
